You guys are posting as if we still have N64 graphics or something.

... I'll grant you that Nintendo Switch performance isn't as rough compared to the contemporaries as the Nintendo 64 would be compared to like a PS2... And indeed, we are living in a time with a lot of budget games developed to run on almost anything, it wouldn't shock me if a PC from 2006 or so could run a lot of them.
But the problem is that we are still dealing with some compromises here. So for example, the Switch version of Dragon Quest XI had to be tweaked at the source code, receive alterations to the assets and recompiled from scratch in order to work on Switch. The result is still a really good game but the way the game loads in assets is... Rough...
